'95 Mercury 90hp Overheat Sensor
I was out on the water this weekend when out of no where the overheat sensor went off, the steady beep, not the interval beep of the low oil level. I first checked and made sure that there was water coming out of the outboard so I knew there were no clogs in the intake. I also noticed that the temp gauge was working fine and was right where it normally would be. I lowered to idle and gave it time but it didn't quit going off. I got out of the water, drove the boat home, and 45 minutes later started her up to flush her out and the alarm was going off the second I turned the key. I tried again this morning and the same thing.
Is this just a faulty sensor or could it be a bigger problem.
If I just need to get the a new sensor and have it put in how much should that run?
Thanks for any help.
